Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Do you remember when you were young
And you feet were narrow and splayed
Do you remember when you were young
You used to play with your feet all day
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Do you remember you went to the doctor
To see him about your feet
Do you remember you went to the doctor
The doctor had a very large seat
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Do you remember the first time I met you
You were wearing a hat with a veil
I lifted it up to kiss you
And your lips, they were large and frail
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in French
Now that you're old and worn
And your body's no longer sound
I suggest that you take up your shovel
And shovel a hole in the ground
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in french
Size nine and a half
Or ten metres in french
